Make templates suitable for guiding mixed model simulations

Make data and parameter templates suitable for guiding mixed model simulations, by specifying a model formula and other information (EXPERIMENTAL). Most useful for simulating balanced designs and for getting started on unbalanced simulations.

mkParsTemplate(formula, data)
mkDataTemplate(formula, data, nGrps = 2, nPerGrp = 1, rfunc = NULL, ...)

Arguments

formula

A mixed model formula (see lmer).

data

A data frame containing the names in formula.

nGrps

Number of levels of a grouping factor.

nPerGrp

Number of observations per level.

rfunc

Function for generating covariate data (e.g. rnorm.

...

Additional parameters for rfunc.
